CCW guns

[Capt Quirk]

@Major- Sometimes, I just like to let it all hang out

[Silver Creek Slim]

Currently carrying a RIA compact 1911 in .45 ACP. But, thinking of getting something a bit lighter.

I've switched to a Rossi clone of the S&W model 60 with the firing pin on the hammer.

I mentioned     "...ordered a MY Holster thumb break OWB for the Sig that looks like I'll like.


Up date   I do like it  good quality , excellent fit  ...could not beat the price  @ $28  shipped free.

I compare to Galco

Here's the holster I carry my S&W Shield 9 in:

Since the belt goes over the holster, it keeps the gun pulled in tight to the body, and for me it's snugged up right under my...errrr?. "overhang"  when worn just in front of the hip. Conceals pretty well with a loose fitting untucked t-shirt or a polo shirt.

I go between a Model 37, an Airweight and a LCP9s, can't make up my mind on which one I like the best!

[Capt Quirk]

I tried the IWB holster, gave it a good run. I wore it one day, when I had a lot of driving to do, 3 hrs up to Athens, more driving around up there, 3 hrs back... By the end of the day, I couldn't hardly walk. Been 3-4 weeks, and I'm still in pain. No more IWB for me!

[Major 2]

update . I have yet to use the OTW thumb break with the Sig 365 ? just no occasion as its still to warm for any light jacket and I don't go untucked
( well T shirts I do but seldom wear them aside from around the house )

So it has been the DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster

[The Pathfinder]

I use either a 1908 .380 Colt model M or a Colt 1911 on a belt or a shoulder holster USFA SAA Sheriffs .45.
In the early 90s, I knew a 90 plus years old man who ran a gun shop in Wichita that still carried his old 1849 Pocket model, in the late 90s I knew a shop owner who kept a 2nd model S&W Russian under the counter. I guess it really is whatever you are most comfortable with.

I won't leave the couch without my G19.  Glocks have saved my hide more than once as a LEO.

[Baltimore Ed]

I bounce between a Scandium J frame .38 spcl and a lightweight Colt Mustang .380. In the fall/winter I will carry my 625-10 .45acp or a New Agent .45. I pocket carry usually but I?ll carry the 1911 owb.

[Major 2]

I was convinced my 38 J frames were my go to  ..... trusted and handy , though only 5 shots & a bit heavy ( not Scandium )
I discovered the Beretta Jetfire 950 BS and enjoy the light deep carry  8 +1 but its 25 ACP 

The Sig 365 w/ 12 + 1 in 9 MM  is  18.5 oz  and it goes bang every time...so far

I agree.  As I mentioned earlier, the P365 is rapidly taking over as my carry gun.  I use a Kydex IWB holster with a loose shirt over it or a Kydex pocket holster in my right front pocket.  I have a pouch with a flap that holds a spare magazine on my left hip.  It just looks like a multi-tool or something since you can't see what's in there.  This setup is just hard to beat...

I haven't been keeping track .... What's the ratio of CCW revolvers compared to semi-autos?

[Capt Quirk]

I haven't been keeping track .... What's the ratio of CCW revolvers compared to semi-autos?

It depends on the weather. Hot weather seems to lean towards semi autos, cold weather favors revolvers.

[dangerranger]

Put me in the revolver column. airweight 642 S&W. I have carried several others . But once I found pocket carry I don't even think about it any more. DR

[Silver Creek Slim]

Went to a CAS/Zoot shoot. Afterwards went to Walmart. My CCW was a 1911A1.

[Major 2]

were they still stocking ammo ? 

[pony express]

My local WM has .22, shotshells, and some 30-30, 30-06, etc, and some big empty spaces where pistol and .223 ammo used to be.

[Silver Creek Slim]

were they still stocking ammo ?

I didn't check. Bought groceries. I don't know if I have ever bought ammo at Walmart.

[Capt Quirk]

Not a lot of gun shops in my area, and the two we have are high... And so are their prices. If Wally had it, which wasn't often, I'd get some. Otherwise, I wait till I go to Athens. An almost 3 hour drive.
